Who's up for a savory, sweet, and oh-so-tender chicken dish that's perfect for any day of the week? Bourbon chicken is one of those classics that never fails to impress with its rich flavors and juicy bites.
Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup bourbon whiskey
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- Cooked rice, for serving
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, bourbon, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes.
- Pour sauce over chicken in the skillet, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken pieces, about 10-15 minutes.
- Serve bourbon chicken over cooked rice, garnished with sliced green onions.
